15 Inspirational Quotes to Unlock Your Imagination

“If you fall in love with the imagination, you understand that it is a free spirit. It will go anywhere, and it can do anything.” Alice Walker I write upon my Fancy. Often she takes flight to the heavens blue or to starry skies, mountains, forests, rivers or seas, or to a desert and leaves me there till again she flies away to find a flower or majestic tree! I write upon my Fancy; she makes me feel free! Sometimes she flies to places that are grey, but she prefers gold, sunlit sand where she floats on warm breeze. She might even soar high to a wondrous sunrise, for flights of my Fancy are often bright! I write upon my Fancy whether day or night. I love when she flutters like butterflies - flitting over meadows with ease. She guides my writing hand. Though sometimes serious, she mostly likes to play, and with Fancy, I always hope to be.

Beautiful poem, Andrea. Artful, masterful, a joy to read. "No greater beauty calls me forth, than artfully expressed. The visions of the human heart, are blessings of the blessed. The struggles of humanity, are often wrought in vain. But through thy providential part, the weary soul may gain." "More, please"--Oliver

oh no, I am sure that was not a requirement. I just wanted to do it that way. Also, I completely forgot the syllable rule for each line. I had every line at 12 syllables and had to completely redo the poem this morning. Good grief!

Enjoyed your flight on fancy--beautiful hues you created on your journey, Andrea.
